speaks highly OF Georgia, but especially
OF savannah, and calls il the first city of

bition. He appeals to the Governor to

shall not 90 by default.

MINERS TO MERGE.

The Two Great Organizations of the
Coal Regions to Lock Hands.
PITTsBURG, April S.-The coal miners
throughout the country are discussing
the formation of one gigantic organiza-
ton by the amalgamatiOn of the National
Federation of Miners and the Miners
National Assembly OF the Knights OF La.
Dor. Heretofore considerable jealousy
has been manifested between the mem
bers OF the two organizations, but lately
tue officials have shown d disposition to
agree upon plan for mutual benefit. At
a recent meeting of the Executive Board
of the Federation of Miners resolution
asking for a conference with the Execu-
tive Board of the Miners Assembly was
adopted. TBe plan OF federation is that
the two executive boards shall meet and
devise a set of rules or laws Tor the gov
ernment of mining affairs. These laws
are to provide for representation from
both the Open and secret branches of the
orga lZation. No person is to serve as
an officer unless be becomes member of
the Knights of Labor. 1t is understood
that the idea is to have the federation
still retain its organization with the un-
derstanding that all Its members snail
also be knights. This will, also, likely
bring all of the outside knights into the
federation. The union miners would then
belong to both organizations. 1t is likely
that the knigh hts members will agree to
the conference.
